I'm new here, and have been looking into different communities to subscribe to, it's pretty difficult to decide which ones to subscribe to when theres often the same community on more than one server. (Example: internetisbeautiful on @feddit.de, @lemmy.ee, @lemmy.ml)

I'm not super savvy but couldn't they merge them and have the community hosted as mirrors of each other on both for redundancy? If I'm wrong, do correct me, again, not super savvy and also new here.

Iirc it was mostly around notifications and federation delays

Tbf, federation delays occur for every instance - and in particular Lemmy.World is well known for how they cause them.

OTOH, the flagship instance PieFed.social does have quite a bit more of those than I've typically seen on any Lemmy instances. Here is a list of other PieFed instances readily available to join. They won't have features be added as quickly, but might be more stable.
